I will survive with proficiency

Chapter 385 Goodbye Xiyue

Tianyan City.

Xiyue has been out of customs for some time. Today, she retrieved the elixir needed for Yu Lingchun to heal Yu Lingchun from the main peak. On the way back, she saw Ximen Crane practicing sword in a dojo.

When Chen Ping asked her about the sword cultivator's magic weapon, she was not a sword cultivator herself, and had recommended Ximenhe to Chen Ping twice.

It is said that Ximenhe has a very high attainment in sword repair.

But then Chen Ping's performance in sword intent was beyond her expectation.

Obviously, it has far surpassed Ximenhe's sword repair attainments when he was still in the early stage of Jindan.

Originally, he wanted to use the hand of Ximen Crane to attack Chen Ping's arrogance, but now it seems that he has miscalculated.

Thinking about it this way, the Ximen Crane, which looked quite pleasing to the eye, became not so pleasing to the eye.

"Master uncle, good morning." Seeing Xiyue passing by, Ximen He got up as a junior to say hello.

Only then did Xiyue catch a glimpse of Ximen Crane not concentrating on realizing the sword, and suddenly she became furious, and slapped again from the air with a magical slap:

"How early is it early? Is it early for you to see the sky? How many times have I told you that Wu Jian should focus, don't look around, and don't be influenced by people passing by. Why don't you know how to work harder?"

Ximen Crane: ...

Confused.

I ate a spell early in the morning.

"Uncle, it's too much. How did this junior offend you? Hit me early in the morning." Ximen He protested loudly.

"What? You still need a reason to beat you? Let me tell you, I will give you five days to deal with the affairs, and then go to Guanjiange to retreat for a year and concentrate on sword comprehension. If the sword will not grow, don't come out."

Ximen Crane suddenly felt struck by lightning:

"Uncle, this junior has only been out of Guanjiange for less than a month..."

"Two years."

Ximen Crane: ...

Ximen Crane immediately shut up.

This uncle likes to persuade people with reasoning, but he is superior in force, and the head of the sect can't survive a few moves under his hands.

But Ximen He was very depressed.

Really speechless.

I don't know where I offended Xiyue.

He obviously didn't do anything.

It wasn't until Chen Ping arrived at the Ninth Peak that he realized what it means to have abundant aura.

The Ninth Peak is the most aura-rich affiliated peak of Tianyan Sect, and it is also the peak with the least number of people. Except for Xiyue's registered disciples who have less than ten people and a few handymen, no one bothers them.

Unfortunately, when Chen Ping first arrived, Yu Lingchun had just completed the latest medical treatment, and was still in seclusion in the cave and could not go out.

It takes a few days to go out.

Chen Ping was the first to meet Shizun Xiyue.

I haven't seen each other for eight years, Xiyue is no different from when she just came back from Canglan Grassland.

"I heard that Master was attacked by a demon cultivator a few years ago, has he recovered?" Chen Ping asked with concern.

Xiyue cast a disdainful glance:

"You also know that it was a few years ago, that was 6 years ago. Really, I have a mount that cares more about Master than you do. The mount will wag its tail when it knows that I am injured."

Chen Ping: ...

Do you have a metaphor like this?

Chen Ping finally understands that Master is disgusting that he has no tail and can't ride.

"Master was joking. The disciple heard this for the first time and couldn't wait to send a letter to Master. Knowing that Master has already retreated, he thought he would not see him again, so he postponed his visit until today." Chen Ping laughed. Instead of giving Xiyue a chance to make use of the question, she asked instead:

"Shouldn't the person who attacked Master sneakily be a demon cultivator?"

Speaking of this topic, Xiyue also became serious.

It turned out that just as Chen Ping thought, it was indeed the work of the demons.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators are demons.

And Xiyue is indeed fishing for law enforcement.

It's a pity that the demons are not stupid. After taking the bait, they took the bait and prepared sufficient means of retreat, but they didn't fall into the hands of Xiyue and others.

Xiyue's retreat these years was not purely for healing, but for going through a small catastrophe at the same time, so it took several years.

"What's the current situation of the demon clan?" Chen Ping was a little worried about the situation.

Xiyue's eyes light up in the ancient well:

"What is certain is that the demons still cannot enter the human world in one fell swoop. They should be gradually hoarding monks to enter the human world, mainly Jindan and Nascent Soul, and a few foundations cannot be ruled out..."

But this method cannot initiate a war between humans and demons, and the number of people is not enough to cover the entire human world.

Only local battles can be started.

Therefore, the demons need to constantly kill the imprisoned supporters in order to completely open the imprison.

In addition, Xiyue also speculates that the plan of the demons may not be so simple and rude, and there may be other ideas, such as polluting a certain continent and turning it into a purgatory, thereby providing the natural conditions for the demons to hide and even establish a base.

Of course, these are all speculations by Xiyue and others.

"In principle, the more desolate the land, the more likely it will become a breakthrough for the demons, but there are exceptions to everything, and the demons are likely to do the opposite. So everyone is panicking at the moment. All continents are Watch out." Xiyue said.

This is the hardest part.

The vastness of the human world is boundless, and there are as many no-man's lands as a cow's hair.

Trying to find out the hidden demons from such a vast world of cultivating immortals is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Belonging to me is clear and enemy is dark.

This is going to be hard.

"Why don't you fully disclose the demon race's invasion of the human world? It's better to work together than a few of you." Chen Ping was puzzled.

"It's ready to be made public." Xiyue nodded:

"Before, I was not sure whether the invasion of individual demons was still increasing. I didn't want to cause too much panic among all the monks, so that those who were interested could take advantage of it. But now the frequency of demons appearing in the eyes of the public is getting higher and higher. , it is no longer necessary to hide it, and it cannot be concealed."

"Once the demons' entry into the human world is made public, there will be an uproar in the human world. After all, the last time this happened was a thousand years ago. If you want to protect yourself, you have to be strong. Golden core is too weak in the early stage."

Of course Chen Ping knew.

Once the news is made public, it is inevitable that some people with good intentions will take the opportunity to make trouble, realize their ambitions in the name of killing demons, or make a fortune.

I am afraid that the demons will no longer be sneaky, and may kill all the human monks they encounter. After all, there is no need to worry about exposure.

It may even instigate some human monks.

The mainland is afraid that it will enter a period of chaos again.

Seeing that Chen Ping was worried, Xiyue said a word of relief:

"But you don't need to worry too much. Even if there is a war of a certain scale, it will have to wait for the demons to accumulate a certain number of people. This will be decades at least."

"Of course, it doesn't rule out that once the devil's lair is discovered, we will call high-ranking monks like me to kill the devil and start a small-scale battle."

"In addition, currently the most discovered demons are the South Smoke Continent and the Yuehua Continent. Try not to go to these two continents."

Chen Ping silently took down Master's reminder.

It seems that the chaos of war is inevitable, and you have to hurry up and improve your strength.

Thinking of this, Chen Ping asked:

"Master, I don't know if the disciples can get the books of body training and formation mentioned in the previous letter from Master?"

Although you can be rude when writing a letter, you can tease the master when you are at the same level in the Canglan grassland. But when Xiyue regained her strength and faced each other face to face, Chen Ping still respected her teacher very much.

He himself is a respected teacher.

Xiyue threw a small storage bag to Chen Ping:

"Your Senior Sister Guan obtained a very good set of body training techniques a few years ago. You just asked for it. The teacher did not prepare additional body training skills for you. The formations are all in the storage bag."

Chen Ping quickly expressed his thanks.

It's better to have a master.

If this is still a casual cultivator, you have to take various risks to go to various auctions, and you may not be able to find what you like.

Next, Chen Ping continued to ask Xiyue some things he was confused about.

Regarding the broken arm and the Seven Star Longyuan Sword, Xiyue also provided the information he had learned.

Broken Arm chose to enter the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword because he sensed the familiar sword intent, and its own warming also requires ample and abundant sword intent.

The moment it entered the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, it had actually chosen to become a sword spirit.

Become a part of this ancient treasure of Mieling.

Xiyue knew this information before, and she came back this time to check the rumors she had heard before, confirmed them, and finally understood why this severed arm was willing to become a part of the ancient treasure.

That is, among the ancient exercises, there is a way to ensure that the spirit transformed from living beings can break away from the ancient treasure in a special way and regain their freedom after their strength is restored.

Obviously Broken Arm knows such a secret technique.

This is the reason why Broken Arm made such a move.

"That is to say, there will be no harm in continuing to use this sword?" Chen Ping asked.

Chen Ping did not mention the surging sword intent in the ancient sword.

It also didn't mention that there is another universe in the sword, or even the sword formula.

Not to mention that he can enter the universe of the sword with spiritual consciousness, can use the sword intent, and can clearly see the broken arms floating above the sword intent avenue.

Xiyue nodded slightly:

"No. Since it is already a weapon spirit, it has already shared weal and woe with you. The stronger your sword intent is, the better it can cultivate itself."

"But whether you choose to use this sword as a talisman, you have to consider it carefully, because once it becomes a talisman, when the spirit of the weapon is separated from the ancient sword, the ancient sword will become the ancient treasure of killing spirits again, and you have to do it all over again. Raise a weapon spirit out."

"Of course, this is a matter for the future. If your cultivation level does not reach the level of transformation, I am afraid that you will not be able to reach the stage of worrying about these things."

Chen Ping understood.

That is to say, the sword intent and sword art in the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword can still be used.

From this point alone, Chen Ping was very satisfied.

As for the natal magic weapon, it can only be cultivated in the mid-term, and I will talk about it later.

Chen Ping thought of the voice from the broken arm in the underground palace of the mysterious ruins of Canglan Grassland, and asked:

"Master, have you ever found out who Zhao Changxing is?"

Everyone heard the question from the broken arm in the underground palace.

Chen Ping once asked Xiyue, but at that time Xiyue didn't know who Zhao Changxing was.

Unfortunately, Xiyue still doesn't know at this moment:

"I have checked all the ancient books of Tian Yanzong, and I have also gone to some other sects to check related books. For thousands of years, there has been no such person as Zhao Changxing."

"There is no such person?" Chen Ping couldn't help interjecting.

"Well. This is exactly what I am confused about. It stands to reason that the strength shown by the broken arm is not trivial. The lowest cultivation level may be the late stage of the transformation of the gods, and it may even be the senior who has already ascended. How is such strength possible? Didn't leave a trace in the human world? Unless..."

"Unless what?" Chen Ping couldn't help interjecting again.

"Unless he is not from the human world, and has nothing to do with the human world. He is from another world, maybe even the upper world. But this is also strange, the three characters 'Zhao Changxing' are clearly the name of the human race."

"But one thing is certain. After the last war between humans and demons, many rules in the world have undergone tremendous changes. Since this severed arm can become a weapon spirit in ancient treasures in the form of a living being, it can only be a weapon spirit in the ancient treasure itself. A monk from a thousand years ago, a monk from before the war between humans and demons, Zhao Changxing can only be a monk from a thousand years ago."

For a moment, Chen Ping only felt his head was big.

If it is true as Xiyue said, this severed arm may even come from the upper realm, then the people who arranged these imprisonments in the first place are so terrifying, they can actually imprison the creatures of the upper realms in the imprisonment.

I don't know if it is from the demon world?

Then ask Bailiye.

If Bailiye didn't know the situation, he could only wait for Broken Arm to become stronger and see if it could recall some useful information.

Chen Ping continued to ask another doubt - the broken arm had no magic energy at all, so it was obviously not a demon ancestor, and Xiyue had also sensed this at close range. But she herself made it clear that the body of the ancestor of the demon is needed to imprison the passage of the demon world.

Unfortunately, Xiyue is still unclear.

After chatting for a while, Chen Ping gave the nameless wine that he brought this time to Master.

"Just ten pots? You still have some in your storage bag, right? Give me some more." Xiyue was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Ping's behavior of digging and searching.

"There's nothing in this storage bag, look. In the past few years, I have aimed to improve the quality of unnamed wine, and I haven't brewed too much." Chen Ping shook the storage bag.

The storage bag is indeed gone.

Other storage bags are also available.

In fact, this time brought a large number of unnamed wines.

Hundreds of pots, enough for Xiyue to drink for decades.

The spiritual materials accumulated in the past few decades have all been brewed into unnamed wine in the past eight years.

But it must not be given to Xiyue all at once, according to her habit, she can drink it all at once.

Of course, it is a fact that the quality of unnamed wine has improved. At the beginning, Xiyue asked him to go to the wild forest to explore the ruins of Da Neng, with the aim of improving the efficacy of the nameless wine. It can be seen that Xiyue has extremely high requirements for the quality of this wine, which is related to the restoration of her primordial spirit.

It's a pity that it didn't succeed that time, and her life was in danger, so Xiyue didn't have the nerve to ask to go to the wild forest again.

But Chen Ping remembered it.

Therefore, the quality of unnamed wine has been continuously improved.

Seeing that Xiyue was very angry at the moment, Chen Ping didn't stay any longer, but found an excuse and quickly slipped out.

Yu Lingchun will be out of customs in a few days, and she will stay here for a few more days. Chen Ping is not in a hurry to throw out all the questions.

...

"Come out? After chatting for so long, it seems that the master is in a good mood?" Seeing Chen Ping coming out of the main palace, Senior Sister Guan immediately came up to greet her, and kept stretching her neck to look into the main palace.

"Very good, what's the matter?" Chen Ping was puzzled.

"It's nothing. The master asked me to take my junior brother to visit the Tianyan Sect. Junior brother, wait a minute, senior sister has something to do with the master first, and come out immediately." Senior sister Guan said.

After speaking, he walked into the main palace with cheerful steps.

Sister Guan is a very smart person.

She knows how to read words and expressions, and knows that whenever Master is in a good mood, her requests will be well satisfied.

Even some tricky requests that I would never dare to make on weekdays.

This is the first time Xiyue's newly recruited apprentice visited her, and she concluded that Master should be in a good mood.

After a while, Senior Sister Guan came out with a dark face.

"Senior Sister Guan, you..." Chen Ping didn't know what she was doing and why she was so ashamed.

"It's nothing, let's go, Senior Sister will show you about Tianyan Sect." Senior Sister Guan walked forward stiffly with drooping face.

Chen Ping: ...

After calling Yun Lingshan in the living room, the two of them followed Senior Sister Guan around the Ninth Peak and Lingxiao Sect's main peak, and they were familiar with the general situation here.

During the period, by the way, I got the body training method from Senior Sister Guan.

This body training technique is a technique that Senior Sister Guan obtained from a sect that focuses on body training a few years ago.

This sect is called the Divine Body Sect.

The Divine Body Sect is quite famous in the Misty Continent, because the monks of the entire sect follow the way of body training, without exception, they have studied this way deeply.

Therefore, once encountering doubts, many casual practitioners of body training will travel thousands of miles to the Divine Body Sect to seek Taoism and scriptures.

The body refining techniques collected by this sect are not simple.

"By the way, the backgammon brought by my junior brother last time was quite interesting. Is there anything else similar?" Sister Guan's mood came and went quickly. At this moment, I have long forgotten the troubles of being deflated by Xiyue.

Talking about this matter, even his eyes widened.

"Yes." Chen Ping smiled, and took out a werewolf card game box from the storage bag:

"This game is called "Cultivator Killing". There is an instruction manual in the box. It's a bit difficult, but it's definitely not a problem with Senior Sister Guan's IQ."

"That's a must. Is it fun?" Senior Sister Guan, who was walking on the road, was about to open the box immediately.

Chen Ping stopped and said:

"Senior Sister Guan, don't worry, this game requires the cooperation of multiple people to play. From now on, Senior Sister Guan and the younger brothers and sisters on the Ninth Peak can play together slowly. If there is something you don't understand, go to Tianyan City to find Yun Lingshan, and she will be there After staying in Tianyan City for a while, my junior opened a shop in Tianyan City."

Hearing this, Yun Lingshan hurriedly said:

"Master, if you have any doubts, you can go to Tianyan City to find Lingshan at any time. Master's shop is next to the 'Jiechen' magic weapon shop in Xinghua Lane."

Sister Guan paused slightly when she heard the words, and said in surprise:

"Jiechen Magic Artifact Shop? That's my girl's property. What a coincidence? What kind of shop did my junior open?"

Hearing this, Chen Ping showed a 'surprised' look.

"Unexpectedly" is actually the property of Senior Sister Guan:

"The person behind the magic weapon shop is Senior Sister Guan? It's really a coincidence, it's a fate. The junior brother's shop sells talismans."

Next, Chen Ping seriously introduced the situation of the talisman shop to Senior Sister Guan.

Finally throw an olive branch:

"Since it stands next to Senior Sister Guan's store, wouldn't it be great for Senior Sister to stay in the talisman store of Junior Brother? The bodyguards in the Juechen Artifact Store can be used for two purposes without any extra costs. We operate the talisman store by ourselves. The senior sister only needs to be famous and does not need to spend any energy. The senior sister can also enjoy the annual income brought by the talisman shop."

If the talisman store wants to gain a foothold in Tianyan City, it must have a strong background.

He himself will eventually return to Ling Xiaozong.

Yun Lingshan's cultivation is obviously not enough.

And the power of Tianyan Sect is undoubtedly the biggest background of Tianyan City. Among the Tianyan Sect, the Ninth Peak is the most important.

Chen Ping obviously couldn't get Xiyue to join a small talisman store, so Senior Sister Guan was the best candidate.

Although Senior Sister Guan is only at the early stage of Jindan, she is a representative figure of the Ninth Peak, and Xiyue stands behind her.

In Tianyan City, no one dared to offend Xiyue.

"Don't do it, I don't lack spirit stones." Senior Sister Guan said decisively.

Chen Ping was mentally prepared, and followed the guidance:

"Senior sister, don't worry. Junior brother naturally knows that senior sister has no shortage of spirit stones, but this talisman shop is not only a talisman shop for casual cultivators, but also does business with other immortal cities. Is senior sister often banned by the master in the Ninth Peak?" Cultivation? Isn’t Master very strict and doesn’t allow you to go out casually? With this talisman shop, isn’t it just one more reason to go out?”

Sister Guan's eyes sparkled when she heard this.

"It's true. Uh...don't do it." The expression on her face changed instantly.

Chen Ping: ...

Sudden.

"Paji~"

A booklet fell from Chen Ping's arms.

Chen Ping picked it up as if nothing had happened, patted the booklet, and put it back in his arms.

"What is it?" Sister Guan saw the words "Dou Po Cang Tian" on the cover, which didn't look like a skill.

"Oh, it's just the storybook. The younger brother wrote it himself." Chen Ping said flatly.

"You wrote it? How about asking Senior Sister to take a look?" Senior Sister Guan suddenly became interested.

"No." Chen Ping said calmly.

"Cut, forget it if you don't borrow it." Senior Sister Guan cut.

The three continued to walk forward, Yun Lingshan gently pulled Chen Ping's sleeve, not knowing what to do next.

The biggest attraction of inviting people to join is the profit from the store, but if the other party does not lack spirit stones, it will be more troublesome.

Sister Guan is obviously in this category.

Chen Ping was not worried.

really.

The three walked for a while, Senior Sister Guan suddenly turned her head and asked:

"What kind of story does the legendary story tell?"

"Oh, it's about an epic story about a young man unyielding to the tricks of fate, fighting against the sky, and standing on the summit of force. Or, it's about the young man who was divorced at the beginning, and then used his strength to prove that he had been married for 30 years and 30 years. The story of He Ximo bullying the young and poor."

"May I borrow Senior Sister to take a look?" The light in Senior Sister Guan's eyes flashed.

"No." Chen Ping was expressionless.

"Cut, forget it. This legendary story is so tacky." Senior Sister Guan complained.

hehe.

So you are so curious?

The three of them continued to move forward, and after walking for a while, Senior Sister Guan turned her head:

"Why was the boy divorced? What happened afterwards?"

"It's been so long since I finished writing, how can I still remember?" Chen Ping said in a 'speechless' way.

"Then you can ask Senior Sister to take a look." Senior Sister Guan smiled and flattered her.

"No." Chen Ping was categorical.

"Tch, it's boring. If you don't borrow it, don't borrow it. What's the big deal." Sister Guan waved her hand.

Walked another distance.

Sister Guan and Chen Ping walked side by side:

"That super-thick stack just now was all that legendary story book?"

"yes."

"Oh~... how many copies of this legendary story book do you have?"

"That's all, but there are a few more in the works."

"oh."

After a while, Senior Sister Guan said seriously:

"Senior Sister suddenly felt that the shop of Junior Brother is very good, and Senior Sister just looks at it on behalf of Junior Brother. They are both Master's apprentices, what are you and me?"

"But, isn't senior sister not short of spirit stones?"

"Eh. Brother Chen, the senior sisters at the early stage of Golden Core definitely don't lack spirit stones, but what about the middle stage of Golden Core, and the late stage of Golden Core? You have to plan ahead. There is a shortage, there is a lot of shortage."

Chen Ping: ... Ha ha.

I can't cure you anymore.

"Lingshan, why don't you thank you, Uncle Guan? If there is anything in the store in the future, just declare the name of Uncle Guan, and the uncle can carry it. If you have nothing to do, come to Tianyanzong to see Uncle Guan."

Sister Guan: ...

"Yes, master. Thank you uncle." Yun Lingshan pursed her lips and chuckled.

"..."
